Milán Mosonyi (BME Department of Analysis and Operations Research, Alfréd Rényi Institue of Mathematics): Classical and quantum systems and how to find them

The aim of physical models is to reproduce and predict the distribution of the outcomes of measurements performed on systems in the scope of the given theory. In this talk we give a quick introduction into classical and quantum models, and explain how their difference can be tested in the context of cooperative games. Time permitting, we also explain some subtle technicalities leading to different versions of the quantum formalism and their connection to various interesting problems in Mathematics. No prior knowledge of quantum mechanics is required.
